I don't blame you for being scared, Miss, not one little bit. Ain't no person in their right mind ain't scared of white water.

I never dreamed that any mere physical experience could be so stimulating.

How's that, Miss?

I've only known such excitement a few times before - a few times in my dear brother's sermons when the spirit was really upon him.

You mean you want to go on?

Naturally.

Miss, you're crazy.

I beg your pardon.

You know what would have happened if we would have come up against one of them rocks?

But we didn't. I must say I'm filled with admiration for your skill, Mr. Allnut. Do you suppose I'll try practice steering a bit that someday I might try? I can hardly wait...Now that I've had a taste of it. I don't wonder you love boating, Mr. Allnut.
